The data model is the product

Two-sided platforms fail at the schema long before they fail at the interface.

Search that narrows fast

Faceted filtering over a large catalogue is a performance problem before it is a design one.

Trust and payouts up front

Moderation tooling and commission logic are core scope, not a phase two that never arrives.
